What good For Correa Solutions 'See Pags • • • 14 • t "My pet, gripe," said the old-timer, "is against all. to many drivers who have developed bad driving and maintenance habits." • This old-timer says he found hiniself trapped on a fine, broad turnpike 'by a sudden and severe bad weather condition. "I say 'trapped' because traffic was heavy and too many motorists-were high- balling far above the 55- mile speed Ifinit when the storm broke. "NatUrally, I turned on my lights immediately. I wanted the car behind me to realize I was ahead of him, no matter *how badly forward vision was impair- ed by the mounting dark- ness and the foglike mist created by the heavy rains. Too many failed . "But too many others failed to do likewise (why, I will- never know) which meant that frequently all you saw ahead of you that might be a motor vehicle was a slightly darker shape in the wet gloom. . "Meanwhile, if the guy in back of you didn't have some light showing for- ward, you'd have to strain to make sure he wasn't engaged in dangerous tailgating. "It was ahriost impossi- ble to turn off the turn- pike with any degree of safety - turnoffs were jammed and motorists were speeding by. "Another hazard was cars that had run out . of gas or had encountered some mechanical difficulty which forced them to stop at roadside. Then, in a misguided effort to save c. their batteries, they didn't even show parking lights. Never a breakdown "I've never, during all of my driving in good weather and bad, had to stop because of a mechan- ical- breakdown, or being out of gas. "This 100 per cent per- formance, I attribute to the fact that every car I've ever owned has been taken in for a tune-up and a complete check of all safe- ty features at every 10,000 miles that shows on my odometer. "I got through 'the 135- mile drive during a vision destroying storm safely until, -off the turnpike and very near my home, I was stopped by a red traffic light at the bottom of a little hill.
